For Eostre.
The door does indeed lock, and he does this first before pushing her up against the wall, firmly but not hard, kissing her deeply this time and tangling one hand in the white gold of her hair as his other hand curves over her waist. It's every bit as wonderful as he thought it would be.
"I have to say," he says, a bit breathless, "I didn't really expect this today."

When he pulls back from her mouth and kisses down her neck, she tips her head back to give him room, her pulse jumping under pale skin, a silver chain catching the light there. She moans when he bites her, just softly. Oh, yes, darling. When he touches her breast, she ripples under his hand.

For the first time since he stepped onto the sand and everything changed, he isn't thinking about home. He isn't thinking about Hobbes, or Florence, or how to get back to them or whether or not they're even alive. It doesn't matter. Nothing matters right now but the woman in his arms and the high sweetness pulsing through his head, growing and swelling.

She purses her lips, rubbing her hands down her bare shin.

He gets a bit shakily to his feet and bends down, offering her a hand.

Reluctantly, he reaches around her and unlocks the door.
